by fnovelpiaTower 6th floor.
“… I’m speechless.”
castellan.
Zane.
She was strong.
No, her clan was strong.
The hundreds of undead legions directly ruled by the castle lord were not even compared to mine.
It cannot be explained simply as strong.
It’s just overwhelming.
“Guhuh… .”
As proof, the almighty and powerful warrior who came through the gate fell.
Seongju really helped me and followed me to the 6th floor, not only wiping out the troops at the gate, but also wiping out the additional Uk elite troops that came over without even touching me, as if he was not impressed.
What would it be like if it were me?
How could they not have won even if they airlifted 10 Death Knights?
But Seongju was of a different level.
So much so that the Uk people seem weak.
An unexpected thousand and ten thousand horses.
A fight that could never be won.
It has become a fight that can never be lost.
[Were you planning on going over here alone?]
“… That’s right.”
[It must have been too much for you.]
“… … That’s right.”
Seongju’s emotionless words.
I’m not saying anything in particular, but I feel embarrassed for some reason.
I thought that if I made my own preparations, I would be able to run away and harass the Uk tribe, but looking at my response just now, I probably wouldn’t even be able to get through the entrance properly and got angry.
No, even if he had known, he would have barely escaped using the Death Knight as a shield.
But it all became irrelevant.
Because Seongju participated in the war.
Okay.
I raised the back of my hand.
As I raised my morale, a picture of a skull wearing a hat appeared on the back of my hand.
A gray glow burns in the eyes.
Necropolis means unofficial lion.
Black is the sign of death, and other colors represent the lion’s position. For reference, in my past life, I was given the color blue. Blue can be thought of as the lion of reconnaissance, detection, collection, and strategy.
It’s all in the past now… .
It’s gray now.
It is a position that only receives the protection of the castle lord.
Thanks to you, I am receiving this help.
Seongju’s participation in the war.
I said it was definitely a little help, but a little is definitely not a little to this guy.
Look.
According to Edeline, the power that could wipe out several countries disappeared in an instant. It’s not even the end. Seongju calmly looked at the gate.
I noticed his intention and asked.
“… Will you continue to help me?”
Seongju answered with an expressionless expression.
[My lion is in danger. If things continue like this, the status of Necropolis will be damaged. Enemies need to know who they touched. So, I will help you at least beyond this.]
Frankly, it’s a ridiculous excuse. It’s simply an excuse to help me.
However, if she is, then so be it.
Because that is the privilege of the strong.
What do you think?
A strong person like this helps me.
Probably thanks to the blessing of being a disciple.
[Crossing through the gate.]
“… I understand.”
To put it simply, the Uk tribe is over.
The Uk people are strong, but they are nothing compared to Necropolis.
This is the start of the real invasion.
*
◎︎ Entrance road Aaron Valley Gate 1.
Parbat!!
I passed the gate.
This is Aaron Valley, a different world.
As soon as you enter, you can see the fortress wall surrounding the gate a little further away.
Unlike Edeline, there are many surrounding structures.
It would have been difficult to build a structure that could withstand an earthquake in this wide area… Is it really a higher world? Gate management is unique.
Of course, this place will soon collapse.
“Hey, the enemies have come over!!”
“How on earth?… .”
“What happened to the great warriors? Why are Iberian and Neldro… .”
“Come to your senses. Everyone ready to attack!!!”
You can see hundreds of Uk tribesmen on guard near Miri and about 1,000 Uk tribesmen standing guard and working sparsely on the walls of the castle.
There are not as many people as expected.
No, since a large number of high-ranking warriors and noble warriors were dispatched, it seemed like they had not thought that the enemy would break through the gate.
However, it cannot be viewed lightly.
Huge weapons beyond the castle walls.
A javelin crossbow, which is not present in Edeline, and an ax belonging to a Uk golem that is tens of meters in size are visible.
Was the scale of the siege also unusual?
If I get hit by that, I don’t think there will be anything left.
Of course, if you have time to write it.
[Death is sentenced.]
Shoot!!!-
A powerful black energy spread out from the castle lord in all directions.
“Keuheuk!!… .”
“Ugh!!… … .”
At this moment, I realized.
This is the real deal.
Of course, Atrot and Thunder Ice were just imitators. A truly omnipotent and horrifying sensation sweeps over me.
What kind of hardships did they have to go through to become such a huge presence?
This is the true myth.
This guy is truly worthy of being a god.
It was so majestic that it made me think that way.
So what are the fate of the Uk people?
“Gagging… … … .”
dump.
In general, the Uk tribe has high resistance to attacks, probably because they were trained separately.
It was definitely like that… .
“Ah, ah… … … .”
dump.
Degurrr.
Pick pick falls down.
Also the Uk tribe nearby.
The Uk people on the castle wall in the distance.
If it were me, it would have been only a few hundred at most, but Seongju knocked out more than half of the Uk people by simply releasing a gun.
That’s all.
[Despair.]
Sigh!!
The black energy extending from the castle lord has already reached the castle walls. The black energy did not stop and began to devour all of the Uk tribe.
It wasn’t a particularly physical attack.
“Ugh… Please save me!!”
“Ahh… Everything is over.”
Even the Uk people who resisted the attack were unable to shake off the black energy and fell to their knees. It seemed to have a synergistic effect with the mental weakening curse.
Even at first glance, about 2/3 of them were suppressed.
Without even lifting a hand.
amazing.
Does one have to be like this to be called a god?
[Kill it.]
One last word.
Swish.
Faaah!!
The undead around Seongju disappeared all at once. This is to dispose of the remaining Uk tribes and cut off the heads of those who have fallen.
It was a waste to even call it a massacre.
This is just… … .
An irresistible flow.
It was a predestined death itself.
We occupied the other side of the gate very easily.
haha… … .
You crazy bastard.
I think they accidentally chose to destroy it while trying to conquer another world. Even without doing anything, the enemy army was destroyed.
what… That’s all.
[Aaronveli’s Batia Empire. If you go west, there is their capital.]
“… … I see.”
[Now move on. My help ends here.]
Seongju said so calmly.
There is nothing to argue about.
She already said she would help beyond the gate. Not until later.
To be honest, just helping me was too much. Not only would it have wiped out the enemy’s powerful power, but it would have also instilled great awareness.
If it were me, I wouldn’t have been able to penetrate.
I received great help that I didn’t expect. So it would be unreasonable to ask for any more help with the invasion.
It’s time to let her go.
but.
[Remember.]
Seongju’s words are not over yet.
She continued to say something unconventional.
[You came here as a messenger from Necropolis. I will entrust my army to you, so finish the war as you wish.]
“What?… .”
I will give you this army.
To go to war in the name of Necropolis.
This means a lot.
You can negotiate with them in exchange for the name Necropolis, or you can use this army to show them the horrors of Necropolis.
I just have to do what I want.
For that purpose, we are giving up this army.
War and negotiations over this invasion.
The full power was placed in my hands.
And not as an individual ‘I’, but as a messenger of Necropolis.
This will put great pressure on the enemy.
[Take this.]
“Hmm?… .”
Seongju even held out three disk-shaped scrolls from subspace.
Everyone feels a powerful energy.
A scroll that you might only see in a library on the 6th floor.
[This is a spellbook that contains my skills, courtesy of Labieta. It is powerful enough to destroy a city, so use it wisely. I believe you are familiar with how to specify coordinates on a scroll.]
“Of course… No, ending the city?… .”
[Just go. I will return on my own.]
“… … … .”
The wide area weapon I wanted to get from Labieta.
I got it from Seongju.
As many as three.
Seongju looked calmly and sat down under the gate to wait. It seemed like they were about to head back once the gate cooldown was over.
The legions that followed Seongju were just looking at me, as if they had been notified in advance.
It seemed like it was waiting for my orders.
Is this only ‘a little’ help? .
really… It leaves me speechless.
However, there is no reason to refuse.
“Thank you. What helped me. You probably won’t regret anything.”
[You’ll see.]
Eyes that don’t expect much. No, they’re just emotionless eyes.
That’s it for the thank yous.
I turned around.
“Everyone marches.”
Sreuk.
The Seongju army followed my command and looked west without any objection.
This is the direction where the capital of the empire is located.
like that… .
He advanced with Seongju’s corps.
*
Seongju’s army.
About 300 high-level undead.
They followed me without saying a word.
Since they are all high-level undead, they must each have their own thoughts and intelligence… .
Is the command of the lord of the castle absolute?
It follows me perfectly when I first saw it.
Then there won’t be any problem.
I thought as I walked slowly across the plains.
The land of the Uk tribe generally has few mountains and forests and many plains. The sun was hotter, but the humidity was low so it did not feel hot.
The wind is quite cool.
but… .
My body is a little heavy.
I hope you feel it after coming here.
About 1/3 of my strength was weakened.
Even if the distance limit is only 0.2%, it is a world of countless distances.
Here I am not as strong as before.
That’s not all.
‘Ronika? ‘Can’t you hear me?’
‘… … … .’
There was no telepathic contact with Ronika anymore.
Visibility was blurry even from the tower, and communication was difficult if one was not focused. I don’t think we’ll be able to communicate at least until the war is over.
… I need to finish this as quickly as possible.
So that my disciple doesn’t worry.
Of course, it’s easier said than done.
Even with the help of Necropolis, attacking this large land takes time.
A few weeks at the earliest.
A few months is the norm at most.
… We should only attack towards the capital if possible.
It’s okay though.
If I had come alone in the first place, I would not have been able to fight properly and not only would have been defeated, but I would have been summoned in complete disrepair, causing my disciple to worry.
The goal of harassing the Uk tribe in such a weakened state would not have been successful at all.
So I am quite satisfied with this.
The castle lord’s army can win.
In the end, it means that it is fortunate.
So, they marched.
The car went on like that for about 10 minutes.
“I… Lord Dirus.”
A lich spoke to me.
8 star peak.
It feels like an almighty level.
Probably stronger than I am now.
For reference, in the undead army, there was a Death Knight with a divine level, and as you can see, there was a lich with an almighty level in front of me.
It’s not a force I can easily control, but his attitude was polite.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Are you planning on continuing to walk?”
“Is there another way?”
“Ah… I guess you didn’t know. We all have our own vehicles. This means there is no need to walk.”
“Would you like to ride?”
“Yes. Can I take it out?”
“Sure.”
Okay.
Faaah!~
After I gave permission, all 300 undead summoned their mounts.
A vehicle called a car, which is an evolution of a four-legged carriage, and a vehicle that rides inside huge wheels. And there were people like me who brought out Lexia.
This is so crazy… .
“Were those prepared by the lord of the castle?“
“There are people who have received such benefits, but most individuals receive and ride them. We are the descendants of the Lord of the Castle and citizens of the Necropolis. This means that each person is allowed freedom and property.”
is it.
After all, they are all high-end powers.
Everyone has their own time and money.
However, if hundreds of people this strong are released like this, it could get out of control… Did they all voluntarily offer their loyalty?
I was curious so I asked directly.
“You follow the Lord of the castle well.”
“Ah… Because the Lord of the castle has transcended the undead. Just like Dirus.”
“… … Me?”
“Yes. You living dead. I would venture to guess that even though you are the Lich King, you are surrounded by a great aura of fraud. Although it is different from the Lord of the castle, we are drawn to its aura.”
“The living dead… .”
Does this appearance, which only looks strange to others, look different to the undead?
I had a guess.
I wonder if this is a new species.
“So we will follow Dirus. Even if it was the Lord of Seong’s command, if it had been someone else, we wouldn’t have followed it so obediently.”
“What… That’s a good thing.”
“You appear to have weakened your energy now, but you are the absolute leader of the undead. I believe that the undead race will become its own star. So, I will do my best to assist you.”
“I will also trust you. What is your name?”
“This is Berg.”
“Remember it.”
“Thank you.”
This appearance seems to increase the loyalty of the undead.
If I think about it, when I turned the Bytron tribe into lichs, they referred to me as the Lich King and voluntarily offered me their allegiance.
The moment I first woke up, I spoke arrogantly in informal language and immediately lowered my head.
Is it really because of something like this?
Maybe this is why the Lord of Seong left the army to me.
It may also be to check my capabilities.
Sigh.
In that case, I have no choice but to use it.
Faaah!!
I summoned Lexia and got on her.
“Everyone moves with me.”
“Yes.”
Shuuuung~
The most elite unit.
Personal vehicle.
Perfect for a surprise attack.
I flew low at the speed of the slowest guy. You need to pull out as many mulberries as possible before the enemies get ready.
The enemy doesn’t even have time to prepare.
moved forward.
